Occasionally during snow plowing, wet or heavy snow from the plow may push mailboxes over. Agencies plow snow only on roads in their jurisdiction. If you live on a state road, contact IDOT at 815-434-6131. If you live on a township road, you should notify your road commissioner. If you live on a county road, you may contact the highway department and personnel will inspect the reported mailbox after the roads have been cleared of snow and ice.

If you know which township you live in, you can look up your road commissioner on the Township Officials page. If you do not know which township you live in, you can check on your tax bill or contact the highway department.
